What was the conflict between Crown and the parliament in the 17th century?

Some evidence suggests that religious reasons are most important for causing the war like the Scottish rebellion and growing gap between Puritans and standard Protestants. However, some evidence suggests Charles style of reign was most important. Like his very strong belief on divine right of kings. There is also evidence for financial problems being an issue, social, constitutional and national conflict. There is no clear answer really.

There are a number of religious reasons as to why the civil war broke out. One of the reasons not necessarily the most crucial was that Charles married a Catholic woman; this caused a number of fears that she would convert him. Although a protestant he was a cultured man and enjoyed decorated churches, this however was seen as Catholic and angered many Protestants especially Puritans. However, what angered most Protestants out of all the religious squabbles was Archbishop William Laud. He was a huge opposition of Puritans a sect of Protestantism. He was afraid of the local bishops running there own church and the system of hierarchy that he was head of being overrun. However, the Protestants thought the Counter Reformation which at the time was spreading all through Europe would come to England. Also the fact the Protestants were losing the 30 years war.

Other reasons for the civil war was financial problems this was mainly based around the fact Parliament had to give him permission to collect taxes which meant as the parliament didn't like his view on the divine right of kings they suppressed money from him. To get money from the people Ship Tax was introduced another tax first introduced in just coastal counties

In the 1970s, a Marxist approach to the reasoning behind the civil war was favoured as after all Parliament is commoners and the crown is aristocracy. However, in the end it was discovered, after doing a survey, that the two sides were split evenly so technically the whole Marxist approach is not valid. Therefore a lot of time was wasted in Cambridge and other universities in the 1970s trying to prove the Marxist approach was incorrect.

How did bloody Mary get the name bloody Mary?

Due to Fantastic Mr Foxes book of Martyrs where he refers to her as Bloody Mary, She only had just under 300 protestants burned as heretics. The majority were exiled (800) for the 6 years she was on the throne. During that time they worked on the cult of Bloody Mary by ensuring that Protestant propaganda out weighed that of the Catholics 2:1!! She was also the daughter of King Henry VIII and Catherine of Aragon. She took the throne when her parents divorced and after Henry split from the Catholic Church causing the devastating English Reformation. That is how she got her name.


Mary did kill (not herself) but did send out her soldiers or something, she did send out people... to kill the protestants of England. Many as mentioned before about 800 protestants left England. Mary was hated for that, but was also given the name "Bloody Mary" for it. There is a legend that if you say Bloody Mary three times in the mirror with the lights off... Mary (Bloody Mary) will come and scratch you.
